Discharge calculation for STP ETP

REF. WASTE WATER ENGINEERING BY METCALF & EDDY PP 28 TABLES 2-11



HOSPITAL EFFLUENT TREATMENT PLANT :

Discharge Calculation:
OPTION-I

.
The proposed hospital will have ------ beds.(Number of bed mentioned in municipality records or other govt document)
1. Bed in Hospital= Nos @ 500 liter per bed = Liter 
2. Employee in Hospital = nos @ 40 liter per employee= Liter
3.Hostels- Persons = nos @ 150 liters per person.= Liter
4.Kitchen Meals= nos@ 10 liter per meal = Liter
So, Total Quantity of discharge: --------- liter per day




Discharge Calculation:
OPTION-II

Total water purchased or drawn from bore well = A  Liter/day (Bill of water purchase or flow meter reading of bore well)
Quantity of Effluent , liter per day = 80 % of ( A )




WASTE WATER FLOW RATES IN DIFFERENT UNITS:
Waste water consist primarily of used water, the water that reaches the sewer .
For different units it is different as shown in the chart .

NGOs in working on water/gender in Delhi

NGOs in working on water/gender in Delhi

I am a student in Australia and hope to be undertaking fieldwork in Delhi next year. I am interested in obtaining contact details of NGO's working with women on water-related issues (water scarcity and water security) in the slum areas of Delhi. Also, I would appreciate any local government, or municipal programmes and projects that are specifically targetting water issues within slum areas of Delhi.

Dear Mary,

Although many organization might be working, I know about Development Alternative on water and environment issue in slums (www.devalt.org), PRIA-Gender (www.pria.org) and water Aid India-Water and sanitation India.

I can be more helpful, if get specific requirement.

Calculations!:Aeration Tank Volume, HRT, MLSS Values.
I am working in a STP & ETP plant. I need to know how to calculate:

1. Volume of Aeration tank
2. HRT
3. F/M Ratio
4. MLSS value.

The relevant details of the ETP are as below:

Influent flow = 10 m3 / day
In. flow BOD = 1200 mg / L
In.flow COD = 2200 mg / L
TSS  = 850 mg / L

Dear Jayroopa

You may please refer Water & Waste Water Engineering by Metcalf & Eddy.
BOD of effluent is 1200 mg/l. It will be difficult to bring down the BOD by Activated Sludge process to desire permissible limits.

Simplified method of calculation is as below.

Process Activated sludge
Flo3, CUM 10
Type Extended aeration
Food to Microorganism ratio (F/M) 0.15
Total BOD load, Kg BOD*Flow/1000.= 12
Total mixed liquor suspended solids(MLSS) Total BOD/(F/M) = 80 kg
MLSS in Tank say mg/l 3000
Volume of tank, CUM Total MLSS/(MLSS/1000) = 26.6
Retention time, hr 24*Volume of Tank/Flow = 63.84

You can select F/M & MLSS values and optiimise the volume of a tank.
The waste water has high suspended solids therefore sedimentation is must.

Maximum efficiency of Activated sludge process is 95% therefore if you need lower value of BOD in treated effluent then you have to opt two stage process.

Dear Jeyaroopa,

Though the calculation is not that simple, I will give you a thumb rule. Multiply BOD with Quantity of effluent and divide it by 500 to get aeration tank volume. For example, for 10 cum/day with 1200 BOD, aeration tank volume shall be 10 x 1200 / 500 = 24 cum. That is 2.5 days storage nearly. But that is because the BOD is excessively high.

With best regards,
